<h1>fmatrix</h1><p><span class="helptopic">Estimate fundamental matrix</span></p><strong>f</strong> = <span style="color:red>fmatrix</span>(<strong>p1</strong>, <strong>p2</strong>, <strong>options</strong>) is the fundamental matrix (3x3) that
relates two sets of corresponding points <strong>p1</strong> (2xN) and <strong>p2</strong> (2xN) from
two different camera views.

<h2>Notes</h2>
<ul>
  <li>The points must be corresponding, no outlier rejection is performed.</li>
  <li>Contains a RANSAC driver, which means it can be passed to ransac().</li>
  <li>F is a rank 2 matrix, that is, it is singular.</li>
</ul>
